Greetings from Germany. In Germany, skilled tradespeople are urgently needed. Health insurance is standard even for auxiliary workers, including pension contributions.
@@RinoaL I am a janitor and just got back from winter service. Here, all doors would be open to you. Someone like you could also choose an apprenticeship, which lasts three years and is a combination of theory and practice. After that, you would be a highly qualified tradesperson. During those three years, the pay is lower, but it’s enough to live on, and you still get health insurance and a pension. It’s not even possible here to work without such insurance. German apprenticeships are also highly respected worldwide. I don’t have one myself and started out as a dishwasher, but today I am a partner in a company and earn very good money doing just janitorial work. Best regards.
Chaotic, perhaps, but this was a nicely comprehensive and relatable update, thank you! Good to hear you're doing reasonably well, and I hear you on the stress thing. Stress is like a constant background hum anymore, it seems. Making my beard turn grey, it is. I'm finding it to be a struggle to spend less time on the computer or sleeping and more time fixing things to make money at work! Plus balancing work-related repairs with repairs of mine and my family's vehicles. (I live with my parents and sister as I'd likely be homeless otherwise) I could be making money quite nicely at work if I could just adjust my sleep schedule to get there earlier than mid-day to mid-afternoon. (since I'm an outside contractor rather than a full-time employee I set my own hours) Just rather hard to have the get up and go sometimes, and this time of year especially. Anyhow, thanks for the look behind the curtain as it were, it helps to hear that other people are pushing forward despite similar struggles.
I was cutting a store bought 2/4 in my Milwaukee cordless chop saw and there was a chunk of metal in the middle of the board it also just so happened to be a piece about 6” long I was barely holding on to. It launched out the back. Hit the block wall then hit me right in the face.
This happened the day after thanksgiving 2023, and set of a long chain of events that got me stuck in beurocracy and without health insurance for a time, but now its been a year and Ive finally worked through that . Would have been far easier without, and if the hospital had sent my insurance the bill.
@@dontquestionjustbelieve5757 The US has Medicare, which is an odd system. You're out of luck if you are outside of your network and out of state like I was with my previous illinois insurance.
I am subscribed to you but don't remember why. This video didn't give me a hint. But I do like you. Seems like you are into electronics and I am also. Good luck to you and I will have to see more of ur vides.
Well if it helps I can see that you subscribed 11 months ago, maybe it was from my Symmetra LX reverse engineering or something from that winter. Winter is my reverse engineering and electronics time. Warmer days get taken up with building maintenance.
Don't you wanna grow ur TH-cam be making more videos about 18650 batteries? I used to love those and was why I joined ur yt many years ago ❤ Best regards - Dan from Denmark ✌
Nah I don't want a big youtube channel. TH-cam popularity doesn't pay, and actually can hurt you. That's why I am fine with my channel getting smaller. Also 18650s aren't really all that relevant anymore to me. 4680s maybe though, but LifePo4 and Na-Ion feel like the current tech.
@@RinoaL I do not think you know what you are worth for them. I usually do not ask for money if the thing I am reviewing is over $500,, but if it is under I very politely tries to negotiate a little cash, or an upgrade to their more expensive big brother product.
@@RinoaL If a 20min "sponsored video gets 1000views, and a watchtime of 10min. that is 10,000min. If the company was to send a guy to a fair show to showcase their product,,, for 8 hours a day,,, he would be there for 21days... It is okay to ask for a little money for your time,,,, (it is not only the time for you to make the video,, it is also the 15+ years you have spent building a following)
I happen to own some ford and rocketlab stock. I bought really low sadly, and just sold a couple hundred rocketlab shares before the election since it was up a little lol oh well
@@RinoaL I sold some stock before the election as well. I had to wait 2 plus years for the market to rebound or take a 20% hit. I'm building a barndo and hopefully won't have to pay inflated prices for supplies. If it's not the pandemic, it's tariffs, or some other shortage. Times are going to get tough and if you are in trouble, let me know. I'm a male eunuch and have a similar identity with low dose estrogen HRT regimen. We've both kept our youthfulness.
Well I work a lot and get a lot done, so i'm unsure how you could say that about work. And i'm not sure what you mean about sugar issue, it's definitely heatstroke. For the longest time I've gotten heatstroke almost every year except this year.
Super Genius, you're too smart to do this dirty industrial work. Go back to electronics, battery or computer, something scientific. You need to focus in one area. You're way out of focus. You don't need money to live in Illinois.
10:30 When I lived in the Caribbean the heat was so bad for me, I got the idea to try heat sinks from desk top CPU's. I planned on fitting them into holes cut into an old T shirt, the sweat and oil from my skin would make a good enough heat sink compound, and I hopped the passive air going by the heat sinks would be enough so I did not need a fan on them. I got as far as saving a box full of heat sinks, then got a job working in air conditioning. Never built the shirt, I always wondered if it would have worked.
Heatsinks only get to the same temperature as the air, meanwhile sweat evaporating can get to a lower temperature than the surrounding air if the humidity isn't 90%. As it is, the human body works more efficiently if it just has some airflow.

We really need more people like you, in this world ❤
Your hand looks great. The tingling will go away with time. It's amazing how the body heals itself.
HR wants to see degrees and certifications. Business owners love someone who's self-taught and motivated.
That y ou are willing to frankly talk about you issues and plans so, is enlightening. Thanks.
By the grace of God.
Some people think the peak of achievement is not having to work, I think the peak of achievement is being happy to work.
Not having to work in order to survive, while doing a meaningful thing that you love.

Take more sponsored videos. We won't think less of you. We understand and will still watch.
Thank you for uploading this x
Your outlook on life is fantastic
Nice, Ocarina of Time! I started playing the 4k texture pack version of Majora's Mask and so far it's pretty awesome.
That building is gorgeous, what's the story that ended up with you working on it?
Greetings from Germany. In Germany, skilled tradespeople are urgently needed. Health insurance is standard even for auxiliary workers, including pension contributions.
I had thought of moving there at one point, I find german easy to learn as well.

@@markdachner3779 I think if anything though, I'd have to move back to Switzerland. I spent some time living near Bern as a kid and enjoyed it a lot.

Degrees don't matter the older you get. Put your resume out there. I think you will be surprised.
They absolutely do for corporate work
@@RinoaL
Usully, through the usual 'official' channels, I agree. But sometimes, through contacts, you get work by reputation.
References can help.
What is in the red brick house?
And did you not had medi-care?
my insurance from illinois wouldnt pay for the hand specialist
From what I understand, Medi-care is sadly only for Australia and NZ

Always seek out specialists for serious or potentially serious health issues.
I did not see a hand specialist for a finger injury. Huge mistake.
Thats what I did, and I forked over cash for it. Thankfully the quick "sickbay surgery" they gave me in the office pretty much fixed the issue

very nice to see you be first!
Are you not saving up Bitcoin?
hahahaha no
And?... what did you learn? 😅
From what? This video covers a lot of topics, so you have to be specific.
@RinoaL oh I was sorta just kidding. Like how a condensing boss or adult would talk down to somone. But thanks for replying!👍
oh lol, no problem.
I guess I learned to work hard and die a quick death? hahaha

Hi Rinoa
It is possible to ask for $100-300 as you are asked to review a product. You are doing something wrong 😕
That would feel weird to get money when I intentionally dont get many views
@@RinoaL I do not think you know what you are worth for them.

You should get a broker account ready, in case there is a stock market crash. Just remember, it can crash and then go down even more.
